I just converted 58 video tapes to DVD - can I use Movie Maker?

[Guest]

I wanted to take clips from all these DVD's to make a highlights DVD. The
DVD's are all VOB files which I thnk is MPEG 2. Should I encode them to
something else and use Movie Maker to edit them or should I use a different
tool?
